DETAILED DESCRIPTION

Hereinafter, the TFT and the manufacturing method thereof, the array substrate, the display panel and the driving method thereof, and the display device provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

FIG. 1 is a schematic structure diagram of a TFT in an embodiment of the present disclosure. With reference to FIG. 1, the TFT provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure comprises: a substrate 10; a first gate 11, a bottom gate dielectric layer 12 and an insulating layer 13 sequentially stacked on the substrate 10; a source and a drain 14 arranged on the insulating layer 13; and a top gate dielectric layer 15, a second gate 16 and a passivation layer 17 sequentially stacked on the source, the drain 14 and the insulating layer 13. The first gate 11 is covered by the bottom gate dielectric 12, and the bottom gate dielectric layer 12 is covered by the insulating layer 13. That is, the TFT in the embodiment of the present disclosure is a dual-gate structure, wherein the first gate 11 or the second gate 16 is a photosensitive material gate, i.e., one of the first gate 11 and the second gate 16 is a photosensitive material gate, and the other is a non-photosensitive material gate. In particular, if it is required that the photosensitive material gate is sensitive to visible light, photosensitive material for manufacturing the photosensitive material gate may be Se, Si, BiS and/or Ge etc. If it is required that the photosensitive material gate is sensitive to infrared light, the photosensitive material for manufacturing the photosensitive material gate may be Pb and/or PbSe etc. If it is required that the photosensitive material gate is sensitive to ultraviolet light, the photosensitive material for manufacturing the photosensitive material gate may be ZnO, ZnS and/or CdS etc. The TFT in the embodiment of the present disclosure is equivalent to a TFT connection of the TFT with a photosensitive characteristic and the TFT without the photosensitive characteristic in parallel. The photosensitive material gate is made of the photosensitive material. When there is light irradiating on the photosensitive material gate in the TFT, the TFT is turned on; and the stronger the light is, the greater a turn-on degree of the TFT is, and the greater the current passing through the source and the drain. When the intensity of the ambient light around the display device provided with the TFT in the embodiment of the present disclosure changes, i.e., the intensity of the light irradiated to the photosensitive material gate of the TFT changes, the turn-on degree of the TFT changes, and the current passing through the source and the drain 14 of the TFT also changes, so that the brightness of the display device is changed. The greater the intensity of the ambient light around the display device is, the greater the turn-on degree of the TFT is, the greater the current passing through the source and the drain 14 of the TFT is, and the greater the brightness of the display device is.

FIG. 2 is a graph showing a relationship between an intensity of the ambient light received by the photosensitive material gate and a current passing through the source and the drain 14 of the TFT, wherein I_(DS) is a current passing through the source and the drain 14 of the TFT, L is an illumination of the ambient light received by the photosensitive material gate in the TFT, indicating an intensity of the ambient light. As shown in FIG. 2, the greater the intensity of the ambient light is, the greater the current passing through the source and the drain 14 of the TFT is, i.e., the greater the turn-on degree of the TFT is.

The TFT provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure comprises a first gate 11 and a second gate 16, wherein the first gate 11 or the second gate 16 is a photosensitive material gate. Compared to the conventional display device provided with the ambient light sensor, when the photosensitive material gate in the TFT of the embodiment of the present disclosure receives the ambient light, the turn-on degree of the TFT is controlled according to the intensity of the ambient light, so as to change the magnitude of the current passing through the source and the drain 14 of the TFT, further adjusting the brightness of the display screen of the display device provided with the TFT. Since the ambient light sensor does not need to be installed in the display device, the working energy provided for the ambient light sensor may be saved, thereby reducing the power consumption of the display device.

Alternatively, the substrate 10 may be a glass substrate, the insulating layer 13 may be an amorphous silicon layer, and the insulating layer 13 is made of amorphous silicon, so that the manufacturing process of the insulating layer is most compatible with the manufacturing process of the conventional TFT. In order to ensure that the photosensitive material gate can receive the ambient light, when the second gate 16 is the photosensitive material gate and the first gate 11 is the non-photosensitive material gate, the passivation layer 17 located on the second gate 16 is a transparent material layer. Specifically, the passivation layer 17 may be a transparent material layer having a flat surface or a convex transparent material layer as shown in FIG. 3, so that the ambient light may be focused on the photosensitive material gate, enabling the photosensitive material gate to obtain the light intensity of the ambient light more accurately. When the first gate 11 is the photosensitive material gate and the second gate 16 is the non-photosensitive material gate, respective layers on the first gate 11 are also the transparent material layers, or parts of the respective layers on the first gate 11 are the transparent material layers. Any structures which enable the photosensitive material gate to receive the ambient light fall into the scope of the present disclosure.

With reference to FIG. 4, an embodiment of the present disclosure further provides a method of manufacturing the TFT in the above embodiment, comprising following steps.

Step 301, in which a first gate layer is formed on the substrate, and a pattern comprising a first gate is formed on the first gate layer by a patterning process;

Step 302, in which a bottom gate dielectric layer and an insulating layer are sequentially formed on the substrate and the first gate, wherein the bottom gate dielectric layer is arranged on the first gate, and the insulating layer is arranged on the bottom gate dielectric layer. The insulating layer may particularly be an amorphous silicon layer.

Step 303, in which a source/drain layer is formed on the insulating layer, and a pattern comprising a source and a drain is formed on the source/drain layer by a patterning process.

Step 304, in which a top gate dielectric layer is formed on the insulating layer, the source and the drain.

Step 305, in which a second gate layer is formed on the top gate dielectric layer, a pattern comprising a second gate is formed on the second gate layer by a patterning process, wherein the first gate layer or the second gate layer is a photosensitive material layer.

Step 306, in which a passivation layer is formed on the top gate dielectric layer and the second gate electrode.

In the method of manufacturing the TFT provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure, compared to the conventional display device provided with the ambient light sensor, the first gate layer or the second gate layer in the present disclosure is the photosensitive material layer, so that the first gate or the second gate formed by the patterning process is the photosensitive material gate. When the photosensitive material gate in the manufactured TFT receives the ambient light, the turn-on degree of the TFT is controlled according to the intensity of the ambient light, so as to change the magnitude of the current passing through the source and the drain of the TFT, further adjusting the brightness of the display screen of the display device provided with the TFT. Since the ambient light sensor does not need to be installed in the display device, the working energy provided for the ambient light sensor may be saved, thereby reducing the power consumption of the display device.

An embodiment of the present disclosure provides an array substrate, comprising the TFT in the above embodiment. The TFT in the array substrate has the same advantages as the TFT in the above embodiment, thus description thereof will be omitted here.

An embodiment of the present disclosure provides a display panel, comprising the TFT in the above embodiment. The TFT in the display panel has the same advantages as the TFT in the above embodiment, thus description thereof will be omitted here.

Alternatively, the display panel may have two particular structures as follows.

First, all of TFTs in the display panel are the TFTs with the photosensitive material gates as described in the above embodiment. The TFT in the display panel is adapted to adjust the current signal passing through the TFT, according to the light intensity of the ambient light received by the photosensitive material gate and a first output signal received by the non-photosensitive material gate. That is, each of TFTs in the display panel can adjust the magnitude of the current passing through the source/drain, according to the received ambient light and first output signal.

Second, as shown in FIG. 5, the display panel may comprise a display area and a test area. The test area comprises the TFT 20 with the photosensitive material gate in the above embodiment and a voltage control module 21, the TFT 20 being connected to the voltage control module 21. The TFT 20 is adapted to adjust the current signal passing through the TFT 20, according to the light intensity of the received light and a second output signal of the voltage control module 21. The voltage control module 21 is adapted to adjust the second output signal of the voltage control module 21, according to the current signal passing through the TFT 20. The second output signal generated by the voltage control module 21 is fed back to the TFT 20 as one of input signals of the TFT 20, another input signal of the TFT 20 being the ambient light.

The display panel provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure comprises the TFT 20 in the above embodiment, compared to the conventional display panel of the display device which is required to be provided with the ambient light sensor, the TFT 20 in the display panel receives the ambient light and the first input signal as input signals, or receives the ambient light and the second output signal of the voltage control module 21 as input signals, and adjusts the current signal passing through the TFT 20 according to the intensity of the ambient light and the first output signal or the second output signal received by the TFT 20. The turn-on degree of the TFT 20 in the present disclosure is collectively controlled by the output signal of the voltage control module 21 and the ambient light. Since the ambient light sensor does not need to be installed in the display device, the working energy provided for the ambient light sensor may be saved, thereby reducing the power consumption of the display device. Furthermore, since the final turn-on degree of the TFT 20 is an overlapped effect of the turn-on degree controlled by the first output signal and the turn-on degree controlled by the light intensity of the ambient light, or an overlapped effect of the turn-on degree controlled by the second output signal and the turn-on degree controlled by the light intensity of the ambient light, a voltage of the first output signal or a voltage of the second output signal may be reduced appropriately if the display screen of the display device is desired to reach a certain brightness, so as to further reduce the power consumption of the display device.

FIG. 6 is another schematic structure diagram of a test area of a display panel in an embodiment of the present disclosure. With reference to FIG. 6, a particular structure of the voltage control module 21 in the above embodiment will be described in detail. The voltage control module 21 comprises a current/voltage conversion unit 211, a processing unit 212 and a power supply management unit 213. The current/voltage conversion unit 211 is connected to the TFT 20, and is adapted to convert the current signal passing through the TFT 20 into a voltage signal; the processing unit 212 is connected to the current/voltage conversion unit 211, and is adapted to output an adjustment signal according to the voltage signal which is output by the current/voltage conversion unit 211, the adjustment signal being configured for controlling the power supply management unit 213 to adjust the second output signal which is output to the TFT 20. In particular, the processing unit 212 may be a CPU (Central Processing Unit) or TCON (Timing Controller) etc. The power supply management unit 213 is connected to the processing unit 212 and the TFT 20 respectively, and is adapted to adjust the second output signal which is output to the TFT 20 according to the adjustment signal which is output by the processing unit 212. The power supply management unit 213 may particularly be a PMIC (Power Management Integrated Circuit) etc. In particular, the processing unit 212 may be further provided with a communication interface, via which the processing unit 212 communicates with the power supply management unit 213. For example, the communication interface may be an I2C (Inter-Integrated Circuit, a two-wire serial bus) or a SPI (Serial Peripheral Interface) etc.

When the first gate of the TFT 20 is the photosensitive material gate, the second gate is connected to the power supply management unit 213, a first electrode of the TFT 20 is connected to a data signal terminal, and a second electrode of the TFT 20 is connected to the current/voltage conversion unit 211, wherein one of the first electrode and the second electrode is the source, and the other is the drain. Or, when the second gate of the TFT 20 is the photosensitive material gate, the first gate is connected to the power supply management unit 213, a first electrode of the TFT 20 is connected to a data signal terminal, and a second electrode of the TFT 20 is connected to the current/voltage conversion unit 212, wherein one of the first electrode and the second electrode is the source, and the other is the drain.

The test area in the display panel may further comprises a liquid crystal capacitor C1 and a common electrode COM, wherein the liquid crystal capacitor C1 is an equivalent capacitor of liquid crystal in the display device, a first terminal of the liquid crystal capacitor C1 is connected to the second electrode of the TFT 20, and a second terminal of the liquid crystal capacitor C1 is connected to the common electrode COM. The data signal terminal provides a data signal for a data line in the display device to the liquid crystal capacitor C1 via the TFT 20.

Hereinafter, the second gate of the TFT 20 being the photosensitive material gate is taken as an example for illustration, the second gate of the TFT 20 receives the ambient light so that the TFT 20 is turned on, and the first gate of the TFT 20 receives the output signal of the power management unit 213 in the voltage control module 21, the TFT 20 continues to be turned on, the turn-on degree of the TFT 20 being increased. Based on the TFT 20 being turned on by the second gate receiving the ambient light, the voltage of the output signal provided by the power supply management module can be lower, and thus an expected brightness of the display screen of the display device can be achieved.

FIG. 7 is a graph showing a relationship between the voltage VGH of an output signal received by the non-photosensitive material gate and the current I_(DS) passing through the source and the drain of the TFT 20. As shown in FIG. 7, in a linear region of the TFT 20, when the voltage VGH of the output signal increases, the current I_(DS) of the source and the drain of the TFT 20 also increases. In the prior art, only one gate is provided in the TFT 20, and the gate is made of the non-photosensitive material. When the display screen of the display device at some instant needs to reach a certain brightness, i.e., when the current passing through the source and the drain of the TFT 20 needs to be a certain magnitude, the turn-on degree of the TFT 20 is controlled by the signal received by the gate. Therefore, the gate of the TFT 20 needs to be supplied with a signal with a higher voltage so that the TFT 20 can be turned on to a desired degree. In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the photosensitive material gate may control the turn-on degree of the TFT 20 according to the light intensity of the received ambient light, the first output signal or the second output signal received by the non-photosensitive material gate can also control the turn-on degree of the TFT 20, and the final turn-on degree of the TFT 20 is an overlap of the turn-on degree of the TFT 20 controlled by the photosensitive material gate and the turn-on degree of the TFT 20 controlled by the non-photosensitive material gate. Thus, a desired turn-on degree of the TFT 20 can be reached, in a case that the non-photosensitive material gate receives the first output signal or the second output signal with a lower voltage.

FIG. 8 is a schematic structure diagram of a power supply management unit in an embodiment of the present disclosure. With reference to FIG. 8, the power management unit 213 in the above embodiment may comprise a power supply Vin, an inductance element L, a Zener diode D1 and a switch transistor T. The power supply Vin is connected to a first terminal of the inductance element L, and a second terminal of the inductance element L is connected to a first electrode of the switch transistor T and an input terminal of the Zener diode D1 respectively, an output terminal of the Zener diode D1 is connected to the TFT 20, a control terminal of the switch transistor T is connected to the processing unit 212, and a second electrode of the switch transistor T is grounded. In particular, the second electrode of the switch transistor T may be connected to ground GND via an equivalent resistor R, the power supply Vin and the first terminal of the inductance element L may also be connected to one terminal of an equivalent capacitor C2, and the other terminal of the equivalent capacitor C2 is connected to the ground GND.

The output signal of the processing unit 212 is input to the control terminal of the switch transistor T, controlling turn-on and turn-off of the switch transistor T. Particularly, an ON time period and an OFF time period of the switch transistor T may be controlled by adjusting a duty cycle of the output signal of the processing unit 212, so as to control a quantity of electricity stored in the inductance element L and a magnitude of the voltage of the second output signal which is supplied by the inductance element L to the TFT 20 via the Zener diode D1. The processing unit 212 may also be provided with a register and a digital-to-analog converter, and adjust the duty cycle of the output signal of the processing unit 212 by rewriting the register in the processing unit 212. The output signal of the processing unit 212 may be generated by the digital-to-analog converter, and may be a PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) signal.

Specifically, the display device may be an e-paper, a mobile phone, a tablet, a TV, a display, a notebook, a digital photo frame, a navigator, and any other product or component having a display function. The display panel in the display device has the same advantages as the display panel in the above embodiment, and thus description thereof will be omitted here.
